I got serious with training. ;) Well, actually I went to a Body pump class with Jennie and I did not die, lol.

Our hair now, that's a totally different story.

I sent her this image when I got home: LOL

I managed 5 evening miles later that day but Wednesday morning was a whole other story!

My butt and hamstrings were so sore post body pump so I opted for yoga the next day with NO running.

On Thursday I made up for it with a solid 9 miler. It was snowing giant snowflakes while I ran and it felt like I was in a snow globe!

Friday's run--->

Friday is usually my rest day but since I rested on Monday after the 20 miler and Wednesday after Body pump + 5 miles I did some switching.

4. Good eats with friends!
Sam and I had a great lunch date at Clay West for some stellar pulled pork sandwiches!!! Seriously they were awesome.

Erin and I had girls night as well!

So much yummy food!!!!

5. Boston Digits!

So for my previous Boston Marathons I've worn

14677,

17520,

17529 and now this year will be

17552.

Do you see a common trend??? ;) Funny thing is I submitted my fastest marathon ever for the last bib number and I have the highest (therefore "slowest") number this year! The field of runners is clearly getting faster! Don't forget to jot down this year's number 17552 if you are hoping to track me on April 18th!

So that about sums up my break. Thanks for stopping by the GGR blog. :) On Sunday I'll be running the Moose Run 25k again this year. Not racing!!! Just a training run like I did last year.

I love Lola barking at cats. :) Your kitchen looks lovely! Painting is a tough job. You should count that as strength and stability training. I wish we had March break. This week was just HORRID. The students... they are forgetting all of the procedures and expectations we have and are just straight up REGRESSING with their behavior. I had to go over the "Music Classroom Rules" powerpoint with one second grade class. I had the OPPOSITE of a spring break. But it is the weekend and I am so happy! Hey what is dry needling?

So when you have a knot or trigger point in your muscle that won't release with normal phone rolling and stretching and sometimes massage, The physiotherapist put needles in there that are slightly larger then acupuncture needles. Then they pulsate the needles up-and-down into the knot which feels like death LOL, and your muscle contracts like a spasm which is actually it releasing from the hold. It hurts like you ran a marathon afterword but then your muscle feels so much better the day or two later and you can flex it out again.

You have some skills! Your paint job looks great :) I am with Megan, totally counts as strength training lol The kids have March break in a few weeks here and I am going to take long weekends :) As office staff I get stuck working all the breaks lol I hope the calf work helps loosen you up so you can run hard in a month! This was the perfect time to get it done. Have fun on your moose run!

Antiguan Sky is so pretty! I love it!!!! My daughter is on spring break this coming week but I still have work :( I think I might schedule early days so that I can do stuff with her in the afternoon though :)Question for you...you sometimes use a hydration backpack right? how do you like it?

Well yesterday was a fantastic day all around, especially for a Team Relay! Last year I was so bummed out around this time because of the ...

For obvious reasons....and for those who don't know me well.......I'd like to state that I am not a licensed nutritionist, coach, elite athlete, physiotherapist, sports doctor, etc. I am just sharing my knowledge and passion for running by showing what has worked, and is currently working for me. :)Heather
